Neat product. Small thing on the demo: perhaps using Stripe in the demo isn't the most effective choice. Stripe surely has already A/B tested the heck out of their landing page; "Financial Infrastructure for the Internet" is (IMO) an incredibly strong tag line for the hero text. The alternatives generated by your tool pale in comparison.
Perhaps it would be more effective to put a lower-quality landing page in as your demo. Off the top of my head, something like https://www.intuit.com/ might work. Their existing tag line is "The global financial technology platform that gives you the power to prosper". Doesn't mean much to me - I'm sure your tool could give me some better options, which would serve much better for a demo.
Neither Stripe nor Intuit are converting users from their hero copy at this point. "Financial Infrastructure for the Internet" sounds like a diversification pitch to investors than anything else to me.
A good example would be a company that isn't an unavoidable juggernaut in its space and also isn't great at marketing. There are many open-source projects that would work because they don't have a big marketing team, but they might still be well known.
You'd be surprised how few companies actually do any systematic copy optimization - it remains ad hoc even at the big players, which is one of the reasons we started this startup.
In speaking to SMBs and large companies, our insight was that the problem of copy optimization resonates more with larger companies, as smaller companies are more focused on survival/basic marketing techniques like opening up new channels. Larger companies have already exhausted those levers, and are ready for more sophisticated optimizations.

Did you talk to Stripe? Do they do systemic copy optimization on their landing page, or not?

Yes! Look at the alternatives the tool generated:
* Maximize Revenue with Secure Transaction Processing
* Elevate Digital Commerce with Trusted Payments
* Unlock Opportunities with Secure Transactions
* Simplify Your Online Payments
* Accelerate Your Online Business Growth
These are just... bland. Generic. I've seen a thousand webpages with taglines just like these.
AI can be quite bad at generating unique responses. Its answers are middling. This can be great for, eg, coding where you want a copilot to generate known algorithms and approaches, but terrible for marketing where you want a slice of brilliance and genius.
Would turning up the AI temperature and other settings help, maybe?
Yep - the AI-generated copies in the first run are pretty generic - that's not the value add (sorry if the demo made it appear that way). The key value adds are (1) Quickly running an A/B test with no code (2) Running inferences based on the test data and feeding it back to the model to generate better copies in the next iteration(shown in the demo video)
I understand better now -- and I was focusing on the AI aspect because it's an interest. But I get the value prop and thanks for taking the time to explain :)
Who's going to build the cluster? Who's going to operate it? Who's going to decide how time/access gets allocated? Are results of compute going to be in the public domain?
Given the glacial speed of government products, will the cluster be using obsolete tech by the time its finally up and running?
A local model and upfront cost isn't something that's likely in the short term, but not out of the cards entirely.
I'm hoping to eventually add a free tier generation mode for once you've run out of "fast" generations. For version 1 I went with the simple token approach — my main priority was to make sure I was covering costs as I scale things up and get feedback for the next iteration.
Every one of those pages is absolute bunk with made up numbers. They're trying to drive clicks. Take a look at any of them and you'll notice quite quickly that they never cite any source.

No idea how truthful or accurate this is, but $20M does not seem unreasonable. Are there any better sources you know of?
Not exactly what you want, but i would recommend checking this (https://recommendmeabook.com/) one out. It give you first page to read without revealing book name or author name.
The creation process used 11,940 tokens on input and 2,993 tokens on output, which cost $0.35 and $0.18, respectively.
The game it generated consisted of four python classes in four separate files: Main, Game, Snake, and Food.
The game executed without error on the first try, but the snake wasn't able to 'eat' the food. Here's the relevant code for 'eating' food:
# Check if the snake ate the food
if self.snake.body[0] == self.food.position:
self.score += 1
self.snake.grow()
self.food.generate()
The issue was that the snake's body was represented as a list of lists, whereas the food position was stored in a tuple. After changing the food position to a list, the game worked correctly.
This entire thread dumps on Orbi Wifi devices and praises Eero. Maybe Orbi is inferior to Eeero, but the one-sidedness of the discussion is a bit unsettling.
The top comment was created by a poster who almost exclusively posts on the /r/eero subreddit over the span of one year. Many of their comments are specifically in praise of Eero devices.
It's one sided but that's a lot of shills if you think they're shills. Shills with 10-year-old accounts and active posting history that continues to this day. No, I'm pretty sure at least some of them must be authentic.
Of course, this only hilights that user reviews are hit and miss. It's not so uncommon for something to work well at start but then you discover problems later on.
On technology specifically I tend to view these types of threads more through the lens of tribalism than shilling. Like, I don't have reason to believe Lenovo or HP is paying people to whine about Apple online, I'm willing to believe people will do that all on their own.
I was three years deep into my engineering degree before learning that many of my peers would attend office hours regularly. I was shocked. Like you, I was under the impression that you only attended office hours if you missed a lecture or something similar. I had always assumed "I don't get it" wasn't a valid reason for bugging the instructor.
